Definitions

  • This invention is related to a hydraulic brake system for a motor vehicle.
  • Hydraulic vehicle braking systems can be implemented as external vehicle braking systems and in addition to a master brake cylinder actuated by muscle power, to which the wheel brakes are hydraulically connected and which provides the pressure and volume for operating wheel brakes.
  • An electrically controlled pressure and volume supply device actuates the wheel brakes in a “brake-by-wire” operating mode. In the event of failure of the electrically controlled pressure and volume supply device, operation of the wheel brakes is carried out solely by the muscle power of the driver of the vehicle.
  • Said braking systems could be in principle be externally actuated systems or “brake-by-wire” systems. This means that a braking demand is made by means of electronic or electrical control signals and can be implemented by the system without the aid of the driver. In this case, for safety reasons sufficiently high availability of the braking system or the externally actuated braking function is desired.
  • a “brake-by-wire” braking system which in addition to a brake pedal-operated master brake cylinder comprises a first and a second pressure supply device.
  • the second pressure supply device is arranged to increase the pressure in each of the brake circuits for supplying the wheel brakes compared to the pressure supplied by the master brake cylinder. The driver of the vehicle can thus comfortably achieve an adequate service brake deceleration despite a failure of the first pressure supply device.
  • the master brake cylinder, the first pressure supply device, the isolating valves, the supply valves and the simulator with the simulator release valve are disposed in the first module with the first electronic control and regulating unit, and the second pressure supply device and the inlet and outlet valves are disposed in the second module with the second electronic control and regulating unit.
  • Just one pressure medium reservoir is provided, which is disposed on the first module.
  • the suction sides of the pumps of the second pressure supply device of the second module are likewise hydraulically connected to said pressure medium reservoir.
  • the leak could not be detected rapidly enough by the container warning device of the pressure medium reservoir, so that the pump of the second pressure supply device sucks air in via the small leak and thus contaminates the two brake circuits with air.
  • the pressure ports of the second pressure supply device are connected to the input-side connections of the inlet valves of the wheel brakes, so that the inlet valves are disposed between the respective pressure port of the second pressure supply device and the wheel brake. Because of the throttling effect of the inlet valves, obstruction of the flow of pressure medium that is output by the second pressure supply to the wheel brake can occur.
  • the safety requirements of highly automated driving or of autonomous driving will be met by the braking system.
  • the braking system has a first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit with a first electrically controlled pressure supply device and a first pressure medium reservoir disposed on the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit for supplying the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit, and a second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit with a second electrically controlled pressure supply device and a second pressure medium reservoir disposed on the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit for supplying the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit.
  • the first pressure medium reservoir and the second pressure medium reservoir each comprise a level detector or a level alarm. This enables the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit and the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit to be monitored separately from each other for a loss of pressure medium. If a loss of pressure medium in one of the electrohydraulic control and regulating units is detected, then only said electrohydraulic control and regulating unit can be deactivated.
  • the second pressure medium reservoir may be designed to act as an air separator. Thus, even if there is a leak in the region of a suction line of the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit, suction of air and contamination of the brake circuits is initially prevented.
  • the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit preferably has a first electronic control and regulating unit and a first hydraulic control and regulating unit.
  • the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit preferably has a second electronic control and regulating unit and a second hydraulic control and regulating unit.
  • the braking system can preferably be actuated in a “brake-by-wire” operating mode both by the driver of the vehicle and also independently of the driver of the vehicle, in the context of an autonomous driving function.
  • the braking system is preferably usually operated in the “brake-by-wire” operating mode and can be operated in at least one fallback mode.
  • a first electrical power supply unit and a second electrical power supply unit, which is independent of the first power supply unit, are provided.
  • the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit is supplied with electrical energy by the first power supply unit and the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit is supplied with electrical energy by the second power supply unit.
  • electrically controlled braking can continue to be carried out.
  • the first pressure supply device is implemented for operating the wheel brakes of the braking system, whereas the second pressure supply device is only implemented for operating some of the wheel brakes.
  • the first pressure medium reservoir and the second pressure medium reservoir can be structurally separate.
  • the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit and the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit may be disposed spaced apart in the motor vehicle.
  • the second pressure supply device comprises at least two hydraulic pumps, both commonly driven by an electric motor and each with an intake port and a pressure port, wherein each of the pressure ports is connected to one of the wheel brakes without the interposition of a valve.
  • the pressure port is connected to the wheel brake directly, i.e. without the interposition of a valve or via a further hydraulic component. Throttling effects are avoided by this.
  • Each of the pressure ports of the pumps may be connected to just one wheel brake.
  • the wheel brakes are the wheel brakes of the front wheels.
  • the pressure ports of the pumps may be connected to a connecting line between the wheel brake and the output-side port of the associated inlet valve.
  • the pressure ports of the pumps may be connected to the wheel brakes of different master brake cylinder brake circuits.
  • the second pressure medium reservoir preferably comprises a hydraulic port, wherein the intake ports of the second pressure supply device are connected to the port.
  • the second pressure medium reservoir comprises a first hydraulic port and a second hydraulic port, wherein the first port is connected to the intake port of one pump and the second port is connected to the intake port of the other pump.
  • the intake ports of the second pressure supply device are preferably connected to the port via respective non-return valves opening towards the intake port.
  • a third pressure medium reservoir at atmospheric pressure, has a filling opening, and is provided for supplying the first and the second pressure medium reservoirs with pressure medium and is connected to the first and the second pressure medium reservoirs.
  • the first pressure medium reservoir comprises a filling opening and is connected to the second pressure medium reservoir for supplying pressure medium to the second pressure medium reservoir.
  • the braking system has for each pressure chamber of the master brake cylinder an electrically operated, normally open, isolating valve for the hydraulic connection or isolation of the master brake cylinder to or from the wheel brakes associated with the pressure chamber.
  • the isolating valve is in each case disposed in a hydraulic connecting line between the pressure chamber of the master brake cylinder and a section of brake circuit supplying the associated inlet valves with pressure, and thus enables the selective closing or opening of the hydraulic connection between the pressure chamber and the section of brake circuit.
  • an electrically operated, normally closed, supply valve for the hydraulic connection or isolation of the first pressure supply device to or from the wheel brakes is provided.
  • the supply valve is disposed in each case in a hydraulic connecting line between the first pressure supply device and the section of brake circuit and thus enables the selective opening or closing of the hydraulic connection between the first pressure supply device and the section of brake circuit.
  • the braking system has a simulator, which provides the driver of the vehicle with a pleasant brake pedal feel in the “brake-by-wire” operating mode.
  • the simulator can be hydraulically connected to at least one pressure chamber of the master brake cylinder by means of an electrically or mechanically operated simulator release valve.
  • a first electronic control and regulating unit is implemented for actuating the first electrically controlled pressure supply device in the sensor of regulating or controlling the hydraulic pressure that is output by said pressure supply device. Furthermore, the isolating valves and supply valves, the simulator release valve and the pressure modulator of the braking system are regulated or controlled by the first electronic control and regulating unit.
  • the pressure modulator has an electrically operated inlet valve and an electrically operated outlet valve for adjusting wheel-specific brake pressures for each wheel brake.
  • the first electrically controlled pressure supply device is formed by a cylinder-piston arrangement, the piston of which can be operated by an electromechanical actuator.
  • an electromechanical actuator operates dynamically and very quietly and tolerates the number of load changes necessary for braking systems without problems.
  • FIG. 1 shows schematically a first exemplary embodiment of a braking system according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows schematically a second exemplary embodiment of a braking system according to the invention.
  • a first exemplary embodiment of a braking system is represented schematically.
  • the braking system essentially comprises a first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 and a second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 160 . Said units are implemented as separate units or standalone assemblies.
  • the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 comprises a first electronic control and regulating unit 60 a (ECU1) and a first hydraulic control and regulating unit 60 b (HCU1).
  • a master brake cylinder 2 that can be operated by means of a brake pedal 1
  • a simulator 3 that works in conjunction with the master brake cylinder 2
  • a first electrically controlled pressure supply device 5 and an electrically controlled pressure modulator 61 for setting wheel-specific brake pressures are disposed in the first hydraulic control and regulating unit 60 b.
  • a first pressure medium reservoir 4 at atmospheric pressure for supplying the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 with pressure medium is disposed on the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 .
  • the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 160 comprises a second electronic control and regulating unit 160 a (ECU2) and a second hydraulic control and regulating unit 160 b (HCU2). Essentially, a second electrically controlled pressure supply device 105 and electrically operated valves 145 a , 145 b , 146 a , 146 b , 147 a , 147 b are disposed in the second hydraulic control and regulating unit 160 b.
  • a second pressure medium reservoir 104 at atmospheric pressure for supplying the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 160 with pressure medium is disposed on the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 160 .
  • a third pressure medium reservoir 304 at atmospheric pressure is provided, which is connected to the first pressure medium reservoir 4 and the second pressure medium reservoir 104 and supplies said reservoirs with pressure medium as a type of primary container.
  • the third pressure medium reservoir 304 comprises a filling opening for filling the braking system with pressure medium during maintenance processes.
  • the first pressure medium reservoir that is disposed on the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 can also be implemented as a primary container with a filling opening that supplies the second pressure medium reservoir 104 with pressure medium.
  • a respective level detector 9 , 109 or level alarm is provided for the first pressure medium reservoir 4 and for the second pressure medium reservoir 104 , by means of which in each case the level of pressure medium is detected or the level of pressure medium falling below a predetermined level of the respective pressure medium reservoir 4 , 104 is detected.
  • This enables the loss of pressure medium at the second electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 160 to be sensed separately from a loss of pressure medium at the first electrohydraulic control and regulating unit 60 .
  • the loss of pressure medium at the first control and regulating unit 60 can also be detected by the level detector 9 of the pressure medium reservoir 4 . Accordingly, the respective control and regulating units 60 , 160 can thus sense such leakage defects separately from each other. In the case of a leak, the affected control and regulating unit can then be deactivated, whereas the other control and regulating unit continues to be ready to carry out braking.
  • the pressure medium reservoir 104 of the second control and regulating units 160 is implemented such that the pressure medium reservoir 104 acts as an air separator, for example owing to the geometry thereof. That is, that air present in the intake line can settle in the pressure medium reservoir 104 when the pumps 142 are sucking. However, the air does not pass further to the pumps 142 , at least not before the level detector 109 or level alarm indicates a low level.
  • the pressure modulator 61 comprises at least one electrically operated inlet valve 6 a - 6 d for each wheel brake.
  • the pressure modulator 61 comprises an inlet valve 6 a - 6 d and an outlet valve 7 a - 7 d , which are connected together hydraulically in pairs via center ports and are connected to the wheel brakes 8 a - 8 d .
  • the input ports of the inlet valves 6 a - 6 d are supplied via brake circuit sections 13 a , 13 b with pressures that are derived from a system pressure in a “brake-by-wire” operating mode, said system pressure being present in a system pressure line 38 that is connected to a pressure chamber 37 of the first electrically controlled pressure supply device 5 .
  • a respective non-return valve that opens towards the brake circuit sections 13 a , 13 b is connected in parallel with each of the inlet valves 6 a - 6 d and is not specified in detail.
  • the brake circuit sections 13 a , 13 b can be supplied with a pressure of the master brake cylinder 2 via hydraulic lines 22 a , 22 b .
  • the output ports of the outlet valves 7 a - 7 d are connected to the first pressure medium reservoir 4 via a return line 14 a .
